This season on
Supergirl...

- Up, up?
- And away.

My name is M'gann M'orzz.
I'm the last daughter of Mars.

You're a White Martian?

- I wanted to be your friend.
- You are my friend.

I'm going back to Mars.

Goodbye, Miss Martian.

So our mystery alien is from Daxam.

It's a sister world to Krypton.

- My name is Mon-El.
- Daxam is still there,

but it's a wasteland.

I wanna be a superhero. I want to help you
keep the world spinning.

I've never felt like this about anyone.

Kara and I are dating.
Yes, it's awesome.

These are my parents.
Queen Rhea and King Lar Gand of Daxam.

I'm done being your prince.

Krypton has taken
everything from me.

- We will move on.
- We won't.

You betrayed me, my love.

Thanks for stopping by, Mom.

Welcome to New Daxam.

It's Cat Grant.

I've been away for a while, but I'm back.

You really thought you'd won.

Superman?

This is my planet.

These are my people.

And I will not let you harm them.

What have you done to him?

I once told you that my planet
was riddled with the corpse of yours.

But, not only green Kryptonite
rained down from the skies,

there's so many more ways
to harm your kind

than to simply weaken you.

Silver Kryptonite.
Your cousin is so much like you.

Reckless, stupid,
barreling headfirst into danger.

I couldn't have set a better trap
if I'd tried.

Kal. It's me, Kara.

Oh, he doesn't see you.

He sees his worst enemy.

You should've stayed away, Zod.

Your carcass will lie
dead at my feet, Kal-El.

And the people of this planet
will kneel before me.

Kal, listen to me.

You're his mortal enemy, Supergirl.

The person he fears most.

You will take everything from him.

So this time, he will not hesitate.

This time, he will protect his planet.

- This time...
- I'll stop you forever.

Don't be afraid.

I will destroy your world.

You stay away from them!

Everybody stay calm, keep moving!

Right this way, folks.

- What is that, the cannon?
- No, it's something else.

The DES system registered
a major Kryptonite signature

in downtown National City.

Oh, my God. Kara.

What the hell?

I will kill everyone you love.

You have to fight it!

Hey. Hey, it's okay.

I got you. I'm here. I'm here.

Let's just stay here
a little while longer, okay?

- How long?
- Till tomorrow.

Okay, we'll go tomorrow.

And you always wear this. It's beautiful.

- Yeah, it was my mother's.
- Really?

Yeah, she gave it to me
the day I left Krypton.

I had just watched little Kal-El
launch into space.

Our world was falling apart around her

and, even in the middle of that,
she looked at me, and smiled, and said,

as long as I had this,
I would never be alone.

She'd be with me in my dreams.

I know we can't stay all day,

but let's just stay
a little while longer, please.

But, Kara, you're not here.

What?

You're in the Fortress.

Hey. Hey, you're okay.

What happened?

Well, you passed out,
and then you woke up,

flew us here, and you passed out again.

- Easy.
- I feel like...

You got punched by Superman?

- Repeatedly.
- Yeah.

Kal.

Kara?

What happened?

That chessboard's been
in the Luthor family for generations.

Did you come here to yell at me

for not treating the family heirlooms
with respect?

Or to blame me
for what's happening outside?

How could you let that woman deceive you?

I taught you to be a scientist,
to question everything.

No, what you taught me
was to doubt myself.

To look for validation elsewhere,

so much that I was willing to take it from
the first mentor that offered it to me.

I'm sorry.

I am, Lena.

When you came to visit me in jail,

I honestly wanted to be
a better mother to you.

But every time I've had the opportunity
to choose you over something else,

I've chosen something else.

Well, congratulations on saying
the first honest thing in your life.

I have justified the worst behavior
for the best of causes.

But I was right.

This threat was real.

But maybe I backed
the wrong child to stop it.

The Transmat portal you created,
that was brilliant, Lena.

If you could do that with the portal,

maybe you could do something with this.

Is that from Lex's vault?

He created it to get rid of Superman.

Does it work?

Well, you'd need to adapt it.

But if you could,

you would be the Luthor
who saved the world.

Silver Kryptonite.

That's a new one.

The whole time,
I thought I was fighting Zod.

It didn't weaken me at all.

- It might've.
- No.

No, I was at full strength,
and you beat me.

I'm just glad we're both okay.

But we need to come up
with a plan to defeat Rhea,

or she's just gonna keep coming after us.

The positron cannon was
the only weapon we had

capable of penetrating
their ships' shields.

Is there anything that powerful here?

Not a weapon.

But I might have something
we can use against them.

- What?
- Information.

I feel like there was something in the
archives about the early wars with Daxam.

You know, this really would be
a lot easier with Kelex.

Yeah, sorry, I kind of had to blast him.

No, no, that's fine.
Just, you owe me a new robot.

"Daccam or"? I've never heard of that.

It's old, but it might work.

- Yes, yes, yes!
- Kara.

You okay?

I am so much better now.

- Oh, sorry.
- Jeez.

Hi. Hey. I'm sure you
probably don't remember me. Hi.

Winn Schott, resident genius of the DEO?

It's good to see you, buddy.

- It's good...
- Good.

I love you.

And you're the guy who's dating my cousin.

Yes, sir.

Mon-El of Daxam.

Though not like the, you know,
the others from Daxam.

The kill-y ones?

You must be a good guy,
or she wouldn't be with you.

Winn, what's happening here?

Oh. Yes, J'onn is still unconscious,
unfortunately, but he's stable.

We've cleared all Daxamite soldiers
from the building.

We might've found a way
to get rid of the Daxamites

in the archives
of the Fortress of Solitude.

What?

- Daccam or.
- No.

No, no, no. No way in hell.

It's the only option we've got.

What is it?

The energy weapons in the Daxamite ships
are charging up.

They're waging another attack.

Winn, get me face-to-face with Rhea.

The cannons are almost at full strength,
My Queen.

Inform me the moment we're ready to fire.

Queen Rhea of Daxam.

I, Supergirl, champion of planet Earth,
invoke the sacred rite of Daccam or

to meet with you in single combat
before the gods.

May the fate of my people
rest on the fate of my life.

She spoke the sacred oath.

How will you respond?

Daccam or.
I accept your challenge, Supergirl.

We duel in four hours.

Daxam assures you, it will be your last.

Okay, what just happened?

The ship's radiation signature
is diminishing.

Their weapons are powering down.

What did you just do?

She's gonna end this.

You just invoked a trial by combat
created by barbarians.

It's been around since we crawled
out of the caves on Daxam,

with rocks and sticks.

I win, she goes. They all go.

They're bound by ancient law
to leave this planet in peace.

- She's not gonna win.
- But what if she does?

Do you know what will happen?

You'll have to stand by
and watch her walk this planet,

trampling everyone underfoot.

I just have to beat her, and I will.

Why not Superman?
Isn't this his fight, too?

It's everyone's fight.

But Kara just defeated me.

She's the champion of Earth.

I don't have time for you to be afraid.

I need you strong.

Please, J'onn, wake up soon. We need you.

It's true. You have to wake up.

M'gann.

Your friends need you, J'onn.

The great fight is coming.

I don't know if I am gonna be
strong enough to help them.

Don't worry. Everything will be fine.

Now, wake up.

Oh, thank God.

Hi.

Where's M'gann?

You've been out for days, J'onn.
You must be a little confused.

She was right here!

No, she's on Mars.

What happened here?

Everything.

It's being touted as
the intergalactic fight of the century,

as Supergirl and Rhea of Daxam
face off in a trial by combat...

Woof. No pressure.

...fate of our world.

We need to contain this.

Hey, Papa Bear!

Easy!

- It's good to see you on your feet.
- Welcome, my friend.

Should you be up and walking around?

You need all the help you can get.

Alex told me about the offer you made.
We'll get you everything you need.

But, for right now,
that needs to be handled.

We don't want an audience
of innocent civilians when you fight Rhea.

Tessmacher, get Snapper on the line!

His dispatches have no teeth.

Where's the hook? Where's the lead?

Where's the stats,
and where the hell is my latte?

I've been typing for 12 hours.

I need caffeine,
I need carbs, I need a...

Clark Bar.

Oh.

And, um, what, pray tell, brings you here?

Gosh, Ms. Grant, I just wanted to see
what I can do to help.

Oh, you do love danger,
don't you, Clark Kent?

Yet another reason why Lois made no sense.

Oh, and, speaking of sense,

I need you to talk some sense
into your friend, James Olsen.

Uh, Jimmy?

He's been parading around like Darth Vader
punching out villains.

And I, for one, do not wanna watch

some space invader
slay him with their lifesaber.

I think you mean "lightsaber."

Yeah, and Darth Vader actually
punches out the good guys.

Right.

Oh. Okay, whatever.
I've never seen Star Wars.

Oh, and, Ker-rah,
where the hell have you been?

No, no, no. You are ostensibly
employed here as a reporter,

and Supergirl is out there about to have
the biggest skirmish of her career,

and I thought maybe you'd wanna
go out there and report?

Uh, yeah, that's actually why we're here.

So, the fight between Rhea and Supergirl.

Go on.

Uh, Supergirl gave us
an exclusive interview.

In exchange for?

A request.

She'd like you to tone down the, um...

Gee, how do I put this?

The sensational tone that the battle's
been receiving in the media.

Mmm, I don't know how I can do that.

People are finally starting to fight.
Finally starting to stand up.

Supergirl doesn't want anyone showing up
and getting hurt.

And I don't know anyone who cares more
about the people than you do, Miss Grant.

Once again, Kansas, you're the only person
who really gets me.

I try.

Fine. Deal.

And what do you think, Ker-rah?

Do you think Supergirl is ready for this?

- She told me she is.
- Well, great.

Then I'll put all my chips
on the Girl of Steel.

Now, you go out there
and you tell Supergirl

that we're all rooting for her.

Sure thing.
It's good seeing you, Miss Grant.

Mmm.

Those big, green eyes.

I promise you,
when he takes off those glasses,

he is a tiger in bed.

Oh, God, I hope Rhea kills me.

Hey, you're never gonna guess
who wants to see us.

Of course,
the two of you would make an entrance.

Unfortunately, this is her
on her best behavior.

So, what did you want?

My daughter has a way to save us.

It's a device that my brother invented
to keep humans safe

while irradiating the atmosphere
with Kryptonite.

It would've made the planet uninhabitable
for both of you.

Well, lucky my cousin put him in jail
before he could make it work.

And, lucky for you, I found it.

I've been studying it,

and I think I can convert it
to irradiate the atmosphere with lead

rather than Kryptonite.

Just a trace amount,
harmless to humans.

But the atmosphere
would become toxic to Daxamites.

The aliens would be forced to leave.

Or stay and die.

- All of them?
- Mmm-hmm.

And they could never return.

Even Rhea's son.

Mon-El would have to leave Earth.

Did you know he was dating Kara Danvers?

Start working.

What did Lillian want?

Lillian and Lena have a way, a fail-safe,

to get rid of the Daxamites
if Kara doesn't beat Rhea.

It's a device that will seed
the Earth's atmosphere with lead.

No Daxamite would survive on this planet.

But, except for Mon-El, right?

Mon-El might be able to survive
a little longer than the others.

He's been exposed to our yellow sun
for a few months.

Well, if it comes down to it, you use it.

I won't be the reason this planet suffers.

No. No, it's not gonna come to that.

I told Lena to start working,
but I wanna be very clear about something.

We will not have to use that device.

And I'm going to beat her.

Your mother's going to leave for good.

Agent Schott, head to L-Corp.
Assist Lillian and Lena Luthor.

Yeah, sure thing.

When you go to meet her, I'm coming, too.

- You can't fight for me.
- But I can be with you.

- I know you probably wanna go, but...
- No. You'll be a good second.

I could use your help though, Kal.

Spar with me.
Keep me on my toes until I meet her.

That's good. That's good.

You're a quick learner.
Learned that move on Warworld.

What is it?

I just...

I feel like I'm on the brink
of having everything I've ever wanted.

Family, friends, a job I love.

A life as a hero
I never could've imagined.

And Mon-El.

If I beat Rhea, I get to keep all of that.

I don't know.
I don't know if it's possible.

I don't know if it's possible
to have everything you want.

Well, it is.

But only because you've worked for it.

Whenever I fight,
no matter who it's against, where it is,

I'm always fighting for Lois.

I fight, with her right here.

The people we love, they're, uh...

They're another secret superpower.

Keep him with you.

It's time.

I'm here for you.

I know.

I see you brought some moral support.

I see you did, too.

So, once you are disposed of,

I have your word
that your forces will lay down arms?

That the city, the nation,
and the planet will be surrendered?

On my honor.

And, if I defeat you, your invasion ends.

You leave, once and for all.

For the Earth.

For the Earth.

You agreed to the Daccam or.
Send them back!

You will dishonor yourself
before the gods.

My gods are only concerned
with my victory.

No. No, destroying this city
is not the answer.

A city that's destroyed
will need a new leader to rebuild it.

Go.

Be a hero.

Kara's alone.

Supergirl's handling Rhea.

Right now we need to help
the people in that building.

"We"?

Alex, you're in charge.

Don't worry, I got your back.

You're getting tired.

Finish me, then.

Hit me.

Consider it a gift.

You ready to give up now?

Hardly.

Because of your people,
Kryptonite poisoned my entire world.

I've carried it across galaxies.

It's part of me now.

So go ahead, make me bleed.

Can I have the... Yeah.

Thank you, Winn.

You know, I'm pretty good in a crisis.

- Oh, God!
- We can see that.

I don't like you!

- It's done.
- Turn it on. We can end this.

Hey, no. No way! No, you can't do that.

- There's too much at stake to wait.
- Mother!

No!

- You said it worked.
- Oh, it does.

I just gave Supergirl the remote.
Only she can turn it on.

We should call the DEO.

Get them to let Supergirl know
it's ready if she needs it.

Come on, get out of here. Get out of here.

Get that traitor.

Sorry, not sorry.

Get to safety!

Superman, we've got bogeys
above National City Hospital.

I'm on my way.

Get the Kryptonian.

This is worse than Myriad.

I never thought I would say that.

Well, at least he tried.

- You came.
- You called.

- They followed you.
- Don't worry. They're friends.

It won't stop here.

There's Star City and Metropolis.

I will destroy city after city
until your whole world is gone.

This is my home.

And I'm going to protect it.

Doesn't matter if I live or die,

we'll keep coming.

Supergirl, they've locked on to
every school, hospital

and municipal building in the city.

They're gonna destroy everything.

I'm so sorry.

Finally.

Mon-El.

Please.

Save me.

Like you saved Father?

Mon-El. No, no. Please, please.

I'm gonna get you somewhere safe.

I'm gonna take you somewhere safe.

- It's okay.
- No. Stop.

Alex, do something.

Tell me what to do.

Kara, there's nothing to do.

The entire atmosphere's been affected.

- How long does he have?
- I don't know. A few minutes.

It was worth it.

Stop. Stop.

Alex, uh...

Do something for me.

- You're okay. I got you.
- Kara...

- Kara...
- No, no, don't talk.

Just save your energy.

There's something I need to say.

Wherever I go,

I'm gonna be better because of you.

You'll be in my heart.

I promise I'm gonna be the man

that you thought I could be.

I promise.

You've made me so happy.

Here. Here.

Take this.

Take this.

This will keep you safe.

I love you.

I should have said it before.

I love you.

Okay. Okay.

You have to go. You have to go.

I have to get home.

I know.

You okay?

Of course.

I did the right thing.

I think it goes far beyond
the right thing.

I couldn't have done it, Kara.

You don't have to try
to make me feel better.

I'm not. I'm humbled by you.

I'd like to think that if it came down
to a choice between

Lois and the world, but...

I don't think I could.

You are so much stronger than me.

Stronger than I ever will be.

Thank you.

Say hi to Lois for me.

You have changed me forever.

I'm so glad you're here, M'gann.

Of course I'm here.

And you brought an army.

Well, it turns out I'm not the only
White Martian who regrets,

disagrees, fights.

There are a lot of us.

We're trying to change things.
Make tomorrow better.

The old world and the new.

How did you know to come?

Your mind cried out.

I felt you fall away.

You needed me.

I hope you didn't come
out of a sense of duty.

Can you stay?

- For a while.
- Good.

There was a moment this year

where I felt completely broken.

When I regretted a choice
that changed my life.

And then, you forced your way
into my home,

wrapped your arms around me, and you said,

"I'm proud of you."

Didn't make me feel any better
at the time,

but it was something to hold on to.

I am so proud of you.

Do you want me
to stay over tonight?

I mean,
I can be there as long as you need.

No, no. Go be with your girlfriend.

I need to know you two are happy.

Like I wanna about Winn and Lyra.

J'onn and M'gann. Clark and Lois.

It's not like
everybody else's world stopped.

You don't have to act like it.

What do you need right now?

Just...

Never let her go.

Okay?

She'll be okay.

I hope so.

Hey.

I know the Danvers girls.
You don't break easy.

Marry me.

Excuse me?

Seriously.

Marry me. Please.

Lillian Luthor,
the head of the anti-Alien organization,

Cadmus, claims responsibility

for ridding National City
of Daxamite invaders,

returning peace to Earth.

Fake news. Complete crap.

What's wrong with your face?

- What? Do I have something?
- That frown.

It's causing little tiny wrinkles
to sprout up under your eyes.

Ker-rah, the city has been saved
from that fashion-challenged fascist.

So why do you look like
your world is about to end?

It's, uh... It's personal.

While you've been away,
I've been in a relationship.

Ker-rah Danvers has a boyfriend?

A year in a yurt and I miss everything.

Had a boyfriend.

Oh.

For the first time ever,
I really liked someone,

loved someone.

And it didn't work.

Mmm.

- It, um...
- Hurts?

Like hell.

Everyone close to me in my life
is in a happy relationship.

And I thought I could have that, too.

But...

I'm starting to think that maybe
it's just not in the cards for me.

No!

Take it from a woman
who has been married four times.

- Four?
- Well, it would have been five,

but I turned down Rob Lowe.

Twice, actually.

It just feels like
this pain isn't gonna go away.

Well, that's what I said about childbirth.

But it did.

And it will. Now, see...

The thing that makes women strong

is that we have the guts to be vulnerable.

We have the ability
to feel the depths of our emotion,

and we know that will walk through it
to the other side.

And, by the way,

you have accomplished
great things this year.

Your articles.

"Slaver's Moon," "Alien Registry,"
"Alien Fight Club."

I mean, it's all very powerful.

And your prose.

Your prose is not bad.

I mean, it's not great, but it's not bad.

- You read them?
- I did.

I did. 2017 and they have Wi-Fi
in the Himalayan mountains.

But you, my dear, are on a hero's journey.

Like Joseph Campbell would say.

And yes, you have hit
a bit of an obstacle,

but you will soar right over it
just like I would.

Except, of course,
you won't be wearing Louboutins.

Breaking news.

A fire has broken out and consumed two
buildings on the west side of the city.

- Firefighters are in...
- Actually, um...

There's something I forgot I had to do.

- I have to go.
- By all means.

Thank you.

Go get 'em, Supergirl.

Is it ready?

It should survive the journey.

It will grow strong on Earth.

And then what?

And then, it will reign.
